    Capable engine

    The Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is equipped with a four-stroke, liquid-cooled, V-Twin 1,037 cubic centimeter engine. Mated to a six-speed constant mesh transmission, this setup is capable of taking riders from point A to point B, no matter the terrain.

    Aggressive-looking bike

    Suzuki also made sure that the V-Strom 1050 DE also looks the part. The motorcycle is designed with plenty of straight lines and aggressive angles that give it a powerful appearance.

    Contributing to its rough and rugged appeal are its square-shaped headlights, its pointed turn signals, its sharp-cornered windshield, and its spear-like front fairings.

    Large fuel tank capacity

    Allowing riders to go further is its large fuel tank with a capacity of 20 liters. This means that owners of the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE will have enough juice in between fill-ups whether they’re taking on short or long journeys.

    Informative instrument cluster

    Sitting past the handlebar is an informative instrument cluster that displays relevant riding information in crisp detail. On the colored digital screen, one will find readings on the speedometer, gear, temperature, tire pressure, among other pertinent data that the rider may find helpful when conquering both dirt and asphalt.

    Aluminum engine cover

    Since the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is designed to tackle rough terrains, the motorcycle company slapped an aluminum engine protector to safeguard the powerplant from rocks and other objects that might damage the underside of the motorcycle.

    Conclusion

    The Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is a great choice for motorcycle enthusiasts who are inclined to take on the beaten path. Its advantages make it a solid choice, especially if conquering unforgiving terrains is part of your weekend itinerary.
